1. Soap is Bad for Your Skin.
誤區(qū)一：香皂對(duì)皮膚有害。
Traditionally, soap was a mix of animal fats and fruit or vegetable oils. This combination has a higb PH and is drying to skin, particularly to aging skin. These days, however, soaps are formulated with synthetic elements that are milder than traditional soap, and therefore suitable to cleanse skin. Most soaps have emollients（moisturisers） added, so they are beneficial for the skin. If you prefer the feeling cleansing with soap provides, don't let those purveyors of fine skincare bully you--there's nothing wrong with using soap.
傳統(tǒng)上，香皂是動(dòng)物脂肪和水果油或植物油的混合體。這種化合物的PH值很大，會(huì)令皮膚，尤其是老化皮膚，變得干燥。如今，香皂的配方中加入了較傳統(tǒng)香皂更為溫和的人工合成成分，因而適合清潔皮膚。大多數(shù)香皂都添加了潤膚劑（潤膚霜）,所以對(duì)肌膚有益。如果你更喜歡用香皂潔膚的那種感覺，就不要讓那些高檔護(hù)膚品經(jīng)銷商們把你給喊住了--使用香皂一點(diǎn)兒問題都沒有。
2. Dry Skin Causes Wrinkles.
誤區(qū)二：干燥皮膚造成皺紋。
Around eighty percent of lines and wrinkles are caused by the sun. The other twenty percent are the result of facial expressions such as smiling and frowning. If you smoke, the appearance of these wrinkles is accelerated. Also, as one ages the skin makes less natural oil and this makes the wrinkling more apparent. A moisturiser will help temporarily smooth away some early fine lines. Protect yourself from the sun, and you impede the development of fine lines. Remember, a tan is your skin's reaction to an injury.
約80%的條紋和皺紋是由陽光造成的。另外的20%則源自于微笑和皺眉等面部表情。如果你吸煙，這些皺紋就出現(xiàn)得更快。另外，隨著一個(gè)人年齡的增長，皮膚分泌的天然油脂會(huì)減少，而這令皺紋更加明顯。潤膚霜會(huì)有助于暫時(shí)撫平一些早期細(xì)紋。避免讓自己受到日曬，你就會(huì)抑制細(xì)紋發(fā)展。記�。簳窈诰褪悄闫つw受損的反應(yīng)。
3. It Can Be Too Late to Start Wearing Sunscreen.
誤區(qū)三： 想要開始涂防曬霜時(shí)可能為時(shí)已晚。
The cumulative effect of the sun's rays causes a multitude of damage to skin, but it's never too late to start protecting skin from the sun. There is clinical evidence that once you start protecting the skin, it has the ability to repair itself. This repair is not going to happen overmight; it's a gradual process that can take a couple years to yield significant results. Do your skin a favour and start the day with a layer of sunscreen. And remember to wear sunscreen during the winter. Just because you don't feel the sun's rays, doesn't mean its harmful UVA and UVB rays are not penetrating your skin. If you can see shadows, you need to protect your skin.
日積月累的日曬會(huì)對(duì)皮膚造成嚴(yán)重?fù)p害，但是什么時(shí)候開始讓皮膚避免日曬都不晚。臨床證明，一旦你開始保護(hù)你的皮膚，它就擁有了自我修復(fù)能力。這種修復(fù)不會(huì)在一夜之間發(fā)生；它是一個(gè)循序漸進(jìn)的過程，可能需要幾年時(shí)間才產(chǎn)生顯著效果。幫幫你的皮膚吧，涂上一層防曬霜再開始一天的生活。此外，在冬天也要記得涂防曬霜。就因?yàn)槟愀杏X不到陽光，并不意味著有害的紫外線A和紫外線B不會(huì)滲透到你的皮膚中。如果你可以看到影子，你就需要保護(hù)你的皮膚。
4. Everyone needs Moisturiser.
誤區(qū)四：人人都需要潤膚霜。
According to dermatologists, you only need a moisturiser if your skin experiences the following: redness, scaliness or itchiness. These symptoms are more frequently seen during the colder seasons. That everyone needs a moisturiser is a multimillion dollar myth the cosmetic companies propagate in order to make you hand over your hard-earned cash.
根據(jù)皮膚科醫(yī)生的說法，只有在你的肌膚出現(xiàn)以下狀況時(shí)你才需要潤膚霜：發(fā)紅、多鱗或發(fā)癢。這些癥狀在天氣更冷的季節(jié)更為常見。人人都需要潤膚霜是化妝品公司花費(fèi)數(shù)百萬美元宣揚(yáng)的一個(gè)神話，目的是為了讓你掏出自己的血汗錢。
5. For Best Results You Should Stick to One Product Line.
誤區(qū)五：為了達(dá)到最佳效果，你應(yīng)堅(jiān)持使用同一系列的產(chǎn)品。
Another fallacy promoted by sales reps. Certainly, you may love how all the products work together but using products from different lines won't kill you. Every cosmetics line has products you should avoid because they contain irritating ingredients, inadequate amounts of sunscreen, or moisturisers that over-saturate the skin. Experiment and find the products that are right for you.
又是一個(gè)銷售代表宣揚(yáng)的謬論。當(dāng)然了，你可能喜歡整套產(chǎn)品一起使用的效果，但使用不同系列的產(chǎn)品不會(huì)害死你。每個(gè)化妝品系列都擁有你該避免使用的產(chǎn)品，因?yàn)樗鼈兒写碳ば猿煞�、含量不足的防曬成分或是過度滋潤肌膚的潤膚劑。要在適用后找出適合自己的產(chǎn)品。
6. Expensive Products are Better Because the Ingredients are Better.
誤區(qū)六：貴的產(chǎn)品更好，因?yàn)槌煞指谩?/p>
Completely untrue. All cosmetics contain standard cosmetic ingredients. They can't contain anything else, as drugs do, or they would be regulated differently. The quality levels of cosmetic ingredients don't vary that much, and every company that buys cosmetic-grade ingredients all buy the same quality. Expensive cosmetics are predominantly all hype. Estée Lauder Crème de la Mer is a very costly cream that doesn't contain anything particularly extraordinary or unique, unless you want to believe that seaweed extract can be worth huge sums of money. Seaweed extract is neither a rare nor expensive ingredient. How expensive can it be to stick some seaweed extract, mineral oil, glycerine, plant oils, minerals and vitamins into a jar?
完全不屬實(shí)。所有化妝品都含有化妝品所需的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)成分。它們不會(huì)像藥品一樣含有其它物質(zhì)，否則它們會(huì)受到不同的管制。化妝品成分的質(zhì)量等級(jí)相差不是很大，每家購進(jìn)化妝品級(jí)原料的公司其所購物品的質(zhì)量都是相同的。昂貴的化妝品基本上都是炒作。雅詩蘭黛公司的"海洋之謎"是一款非常貴的面霜，不含任何非常特殊或是獨(dú)特的成分，除非你愿意相信海藻萃取液能值很多錢。海藻萃取液是一種既非稀有也不昂貴的成分。將海藻萃取液、礦物油、甘油、植物油、礦物質(zhì)和維生素塞在一個(gè)瓶子里能有多貴啊？
7. Eating Chocolate and Fried Foods Causes Bad Skin.
誤區(qū)七：吃巧克力和油炸食品造成皮膚不健康。
No, it's not because I'm a chocoholic! Studies have shown that pimples are caused from factors such as extreme stress or dead skin cells blocking pores. However, eating fresh fruits and raw vegetables does promote a healthier complexion due to their vitamins and minerals.
并非如此，倒不是因?yàn)槲沂莻�(gè)巧克力狂！研究表明，粉刺是由承受極度壓力或死皮細(xì)胞阻塞毛孔等因素所致。然而，食用新鮮水果和生蔬菜確實(shí)可以借由其所含的維生素和礦物質(zhì)來促成一個(gè)更健康的膚色。
8 Frequent Trimmings Can Make Hair Grow Faster.
誤區(qū)八：經(jīng)常修發(fā)會(huì)使其長得更快。
Hair, whether it is cut or not, grows about half an inch per month. Hair does grow slightly faster in the summer, but that is due to hormones rather than the stylist's scissors. A worrying trend among young Chinese girls is to rub a paste made of crushed contraceptive pill into their scalp and hair. This does not lead to stronger, glossier, faster growing hair. In fact, the hormones, while initially improving the condition of the hair, quichly lead to hair loss.
無論剪發(fā)與否，頭發(fā)都會(huì)以每月約半英寸的速度生長。頭發(fā)在夏季的確會(huì)生長得稍快一些，但那要?dú)w功于荷爾蒙而非發(fā)型師的剪刀。在年輕的中國女性中出現(xiàn)了一股令人堪憂的風(fēng)尚，那就是將避孕藥碾成粉末弄成糊涂到頭皮和頭發(fā)上。這不會(huì)令頭發(fā)更加堅(jiān)韌、更有光澤、長得更快。事實(shí)上，荷爾蒙雖然在最初會(huì)改善頭發(fā)狀況，但會(huì)迅速導(dǎo)致脫發(fā)。
9 Shaving Makes Hair Grow Back Darker and Coarser.
誤區(qū)九：刮除毛發(fā)會(huì)令其長得更黑更粗糙。
As above. Cutting or shaving any hair on your body does not affect it growth. Repeat until nauseam.
如上段所述。修剪或刮除身上的任何毛發(fā)都不會(huì)影響其生長。可重復(fù)去做，直到厭倦為止。
10 You Can Get Rid Of Cellulite.
誤區(qū)十：你可以擺脫桔皮組織。
The truth is, nothing can be done to permanently eliminate cellulite--not even liposuction. The removal of cellulite remains one of the holy grails of cosmetic dermatology. It doesn't matter whether you're fat or thin, rich or poor, luck of the gene pool determines who will and won't get cellulite. Take heart though, you can, however, temporarily reduce its orange peel-like appearance. Specialist firming creams containing caffeine tighten and smooth the skin, while basic moisturisers will also work to hydrate and swell the skin, making cellulite a little less obvious. Slap on a bit of fake tan to aid camouflage.
事實(shí)上，做什么都無法永久去除脂肪團(tuán)（橘皮組織）--甚至吸脂也不行。去除脂肪團(tuán)至今仍是皮膚美容學(xué)上的終極目標(biāo)之一。它與你的胖瘦、貧富無關(guān)，基因庫的隨機(jī)性決定了誰會(huì)擁有或不會(huì)擁有脂肪團(tuán)。盡管如此，但還是要振作起來，你可以暫時(shí)緩解皮膚呈橘皮狀的現(xiàn)象。含有咖啡因的專業(yè)緊膚霜會(huì)緊致和平滑肌膚，而一般的潤膚霜也會(huì)令皮膚吸入水分而豐盈，讓脂肪團(tuán)看起來稍微以曬黑霜來幫助掩飾。
